Japan wants foreign workers to leave

Learnt from NYtimes that Japan government paying immigrants to back origin whom lose the jobs.This offer was extended to hundreds of thousands of blue-collar Latin American immigrants, is part of a new drive to encourage them to leave this recession-racked country.
This program is limited to the country’s Latin American guest workers, whose Japanese parents and grandparents emigrated to Brazil and neighboring countries a century ago to work on coffee plantations.Back in year 1990,Japan had facing a growing industrial labor shortage and started issuing thousands of special work visas to descendants of these emigrants with tentative estimated about 366,000 Brazilians and Peruvians who now live in Japan.This will be temporay measure by the goverment to ease pressure on domestic labor markets and unemployment rolls.
